Support NeoGAF

[Lemonte]

Hopefully Kojima forgot to take his script with him for the game with the boss and cobra unit during world war II.

 

[Charcoal]

I'd be down for a Metal Gear X Candy Crush spin-off

 

[KyleCross]

Supporting post Kojima MGS means supporting the Konami that mistreated it's IPs and employees subjecting them to horrible work environments.
Don't see why one would want to support that.

As shitty as it is... that is unfortunately how a lot of businesses work. If I boycotted every crappy company I sure wouldn't have much. As a consumer as long as Konami continues to make good games that is basically all that matters.

 

[Morts]

Maybe it'll be like how Star Trek got good after Roddenberry died.

Spoiler

Star Trek on the mind after yesterday.

 

[smashballTaz]

 

[Sub_Level]

Sure I would absolutely be interested in a movie take on Star Wars without George Lucas.

Uh I mean MGS without Kojima.

 

[Black Pewter]

Spoiler

I'm so in.

 

[Krentist]

Was this news before or after the news that Konami LA was shut down? It's like Konami's trying to trick people who haven't been keeping up with news to invest now before they realize the rug's been pulled from under them.

 

[SolVanderlyn]

These look like some sort of vile demon egg incubators from a B-budget sci-fi show

 

[FireBeaver]

Metal Gear Solid VI: The Phantom Pachinko

 

[Fantomex]

It is, but it's the only MGS I have not finished because of it's ridiculously bad story.

I'm still very confused as to how this story is ridiculous compared to the MGS1, MGS2 and MGS4. In my eyes, they've all been pretty dumb.

 

[JayEH]

Metal Gear Liquid staring Eli in Iraq.

 

[omonimo]

Gotta keep up appearances.

What appearances? They are trying to convince their mind? Jeez this company it's completely crazy.

 

[FireBeaver]

I'm still very confused as to how this story is ridiculous compared to the MGS1, MGS2 and MGS4. In my eyes, they've all been pretty dumb.

It just feels.. incomplete. The ending is really abrupt and a lot of things just don't fit together.

 

[Gen X]

It's hilarious that a lot of people will be saying this now, but not when that shit drops..

I was thinking the same thing as I was reading the replies. Guess it depends where they take it if they do.

 

[Amentallica]

It's hilarious that a lot of people will be saying this now, but not when that shit drops..

Yea. I'm disgruntled that everything went to shit between Kojima and Konami, but I'm not going to not be interested in a future Metal Gear title simply because Kojima is not on it. In fact, I've grown so tired of what he did to the story, I welcome a change with Konami (that is if they even manage to do anything with it).

LOL

I'm going to tip my hat to Kotaku for labeling them a fitness company rather than a game company.

 

[Loakum]

Konami REALLY have nerve!

 

[FireBeaver]

I'm going to tip my hat to Kotaku for labeling them a fitness company rather than a game company.

More like a pachinko company.

 

[Krev]

Konami will not release another console Metal Gear game.

 

[Keihart]

i give 0 flocks about the franchise now that the whole team is no more. Even more, i would not buy it even if its good because how sabotaged MGSV feels, it could have been great, it could have.

Edit: I mean, why should i care about Konami now wihout Igarashi, Kojipro, Team Silent and Bemani, they are just the guys who made PES /shrug

 

[Bolivar687]

Joakim Mogrim has come to.

 

[notaskwid]

Where is that guy who was always defending Konami against the pachinko jokes? He would die in this thread.

 

[Woodchipper]

I guess they are, kinda, but there's something about this

Spoiler

language thing theme

I think is so stupid that it eventually just made me shake my head and I stopped playing the game towards the end of it.

 

[jormungand]

I'm pretty sure that the next Metal Gear is a remake of the first game for MSX.

The fan remake that just appeared last month it's just too suspicious for me...http://www.indiedb.com/games/outer-heaven/news/new-media-and-new-pics

 

[Roni]

In the end, could be good if they stray from the beaten path and opt to not have Snake or anyone return. New universe, new cast, new intrigues, perhaps even a new concept for Metal Gear? It doesn't need to keep being a mobile terrestrial platform for nuclear weapons.

 

[Mokujin]

Here's last season's Kojima, enjoying his vacation!

Spoiler

It's from Running Man in case you don't get the joke.

Didn't need the spoiler, great reference!!

 

[weevles]

I

Spoiler

don't

like how Konami is now referred to as a "Fitness" company.

 

[GrandiaX]

Are they still saying he's on vacation?

 

[IrishNinja]

on one hand, Rising was awesome

on the other, fuckakonami

 

[TheSlySoul]

Mobile Gear Solid needed to be made. You thought it was a console game? Ha ha!

 

[Syder]

in before Metal Gear Solid 5.5: The Chapter Three-ening: Back to the Revengeance 2.

 

[A.Romero]

ll probably pick it up. I'm willing to give it a chance.

I love Kojima but MGSV was a bit of a dissapointment for me so I'm open to alternatives.

 

[Dimmle]

I guess they are, kinda, but there's something about this

language thing theme

I think is so stupid that it eventually just made me shake my head and I stopped playing the game towards the end of it.

For me, the idea of

Spoiler

lingual bioterrorism and cultural assimilation

is one of the few interesting themes in MGSV.

(only interesting theme?)

 

[JumpCancel]

This time I am seriously done with the series.

You know you'll be back for Metal Gear Acid 3. We all will.

 

[Lernaean]

Yeah ok. Sit tight and wait for the next MGS from Konami.
Or any game that is not PES to be precise.

 

[SpacePirate Ridley]

Here's last season's Kojima, enjoying his vacation!

Spoiler

It's from Running Man in case you don't get the joke.

Of course I get it! And its marvelous.

Spoiler

Would be an insult if I didnt when im working on a running man/smash tv parody game

 

[Kerotan Frog]

I'm ok with this. My hope is that Konami has no original ideas and just remakes MG, MG2:SS, and MGS on fox engine and says be happy. I would be fine getting Outer Heaven and Shadow Moses in the Fox Engine.

 

[Punished_Snake]

MGS V is a masterpiece, I don't want a MGS without Kojima.

Edit:

I can't take this piece of news seriously, Konami please, Kojima on vacation? Huge investment for the next MGS game? Closing Kojima Production L.A? lool

 

[Detective]

It couldn't be worse than the shit MGS5 is.

Maybe MGS 1 remake.

 

[saher]

Who even have the courage to take kojima's place as a director.

 

[akidnamededdy]

For me, the idea of

Like every other interesting idea MGSV has, though, they do nothing with it. They just lay it on the table and say "Hey, this is a thing."

 

[brau]

[Kazuhira]

MGSV already feels like a non-kojima game tbh.

 

[Roufianos]

It couldn't be worse than the shit MGS5 is.

Maybe MGS 1 remake.

Agreed on both fronts.

 

[brau]

This thread has really restored my faith on MGS fans.

I like that people just point out what the game really is. Even when its a good game, its story is just terrible. With no real point or focus.

Thanks guys.

 

[Dimmle]

Like every other interesting idea MGSV has, though, they do nothing with it. They just lay it on the table and say "Hey, this is a thing."

That's how he's treated literally every major social, ecological, or political issue that's ever appeared in an MGS game.

 

[wild wild rice]

It never ends!

Kojima or not, after MGSV, no longer interested in what was one of my favorite franchises. Would love to see Kojima on other things, I think...

 

[AuthenticM]

lol

 

[Epcott]

Ha ha ha ha...



Konami truly is the Metal Gear company now.
Sure... I'm interested in seeing this Snakes Revenge 2.0. I hope it's a glorious mess that puts them under. <3
